When a keeper scores a game tying goal in stoppage time against Milan, he’s assured of making history. But Benevento’s hero Alberto Brignoli had impressed former Inter and Azzurri keeper Walter Zenga well before yesterday’s heroics: in fact when he coached Sampdoria, he wanted to bring him to back up Viviano back in 2015:”I’m sorry he’s getting attention just because he scored a goal. Having said that he’s a keeper that interprets the role in a different way- Zenga told GianlucaDiMarzio.com in an exclusive interview- He always gave me this impression although he barely played, he’s someone that makes you understand how they want to be in goal. I observed him closely in practice and this is the impression he gave me. Today he interpretes the role in a different way, I would say it’s a futuristic manner. One thing is for certain, on the next team I join I’ll do everything to have Brignoli with me”
